I use a clean 4.1 install with Debian as default VM.
The copy and paste doesn’t work.
If I use CRTL Shift C, a popup of the clipboard is shown but shows that 0 bytes are copied to clipboard. My CTRL Shift V confirms this in a sense that nothing is shown.
Anyone has a clue why nothing is copied if I actually use the Qubes Clipboard function and also get a pop-up in the upper-right corner to confirm that this function is used.
Thanks for clarification.
From usability perspective, this isn’t workable for a lot of scenario’s.
I also copy parts of HTML pages with multiple images in them, this would mean multiple copy&past actions versus the normal copy&paste.
True - there’s always a tradeoff between security and usability.
You may not know that you can copy directories as well as files.
A workaround would be to save the whole page, qvm-copy file+directory,
and then trim it in the target qube. So that’s only one extra copy
action.
